Your species is already enslaved. But you refuse to even see yourselves as a species.

reminds me of that line from a Warhammer 40k book where a dying Tau commander is talking to an Ultramarine.

Ultramarine: "Who are the Tau to challenge what has stood for over 10 Millennia?"

Tau: "Yours is not existence but merely slow extinction......"

2 paragraphs in and a Alex Jones reference, no bias there.

I don't care for Alex either, but its logical that those in power want more of it. A lot of people that haven't thought about collapse much listen to him. He's an entry level figure. I started reading Prison Planet and left it behind as I explored the subject further.

After reading the article I realized the guy that wrote it probably lives within 200 miles of me, so it hit a chord because that's how most people think out here. Montana is a weird combo of the descendants of German and Irish Immigrants, and people that fled post Civil War south. We have great skepticism. All of those groups were burned on a fundamental level by authorities that they trusted and gave everything to.

Anyway, to the upper echelons, we're livestock to be managed. The similarity between what I see politicians /corporations doing and what ranchers do is scary. If a collapse happens they will see it as an opportunity to gain even more power. Power affects people like a drug, those at the top are delusional. The incompetence that's being displayed, is proof that they're off their rockers and don't care and won't learn.

What I hate most about Alex Jones and his kind is that he promotes the view that the "elite" are smart and some kind of collective. If that were true then perhaps they would deserve to rule.

They are flawed. They are manipulative, competitive beings and the sum of their collective scheming and backstabbing is the insect-level intelligence of the economy and the political system as a whole. The people in charge can no more stop fighting and work together to pull the wool over your eyes than you can grow wings and fly.

This.

Read enough political memoirs and history and you realize they aren't smart. Conspiracy theories actually gives them too much credit for competence.

They really aren't competent.

They just bumble on through everything, trying to understand the best they can, and usually failing.

I mean look at the panic about them all spying on us with NSA etc. Did you know they have so much floods of information that they are actually incapable of even using most of it?

They've overloaded themselves with data, and hear tin foil hat wearers are terrified that the CIA is logging that they prefer their eggs boiled rather than fried.

It is easy to rule when you have a bunch of people willing to sell their ethics for money and status, and you have an obedient population who is glad to fall in line.
